I know right! It takes out all the fun. :\ I don't know in my opinion, it could probably sway people's votes as well. I don't like how you can see the votes, but whatever floats other's boats. I'm not sure, but most people don't notice until after they vote unless they view polls results before they vote.

That's a good point, too, now that I think about it.

I voted the first day or the second this thread was made, but I guess I haven't payed attention.

Sounds awesome and I wish you luck with that. Sadly I can't say I would, since I'm still so behind on other people's ff that I said I would check out. Life is just so busy.

It's all good Yeah, I'm not looking forward to getting a job in the next four years, cause the extra work's probably gonna be real exhausting for me Hopefully though, this writing thing works out so I'll have more time on my hands than most people

Yeah, you mentioned that you wanted to write. Hope that works out. It can be really hard to get into though, so I recommend getting your name out there now. If you want to be a real writer, then you need to start writing for newspapers and eventually magazines. Once you get something in the New York Times, you're set. New York is where things take off for writers, but it's not easy to get there, so start now! ^_^

Doesn't matter, writing is writing. No one will hire an unknown. You should seriously research it. I've researched it for the last several weeks, and what I've found is very...sad. I can decide to self publish and my success rate depends on how much work I put into advertising the book. You want to be a screenplay writer...that takes a very different approach...

Yeah, I know It might not work out so well, true, but it's still something I feel rather strongly about, so I'm sure I'll get somewhere with it:D

If you really want to do it, be prepared to put in the work to do so. A long time ago someone told me that if I really want something to work, I have to make it work. It's like that song "Lose Yourself". You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow, this opportunity comes once in a lifetime.
